[QUOTE="Iceking02, post: 1978507, member: 15810"] Rich, No custom rifle required. No custom/wildcat cartridge/bullet/loading sequence/drop chart/spin drift/high-end scope required. No long-range shots required. Every guide in sheep country is going to try to get you to within 300yds and this is quite common with a bit of patience. Yah, I feel a little under-gunned with a .308 Winchester. My concern is for brown bears encountered at less than than fifteen feet...sheep are easy to drop with my setup. I run around with a sub-six pound Kimber Montana and Leupold scope and recommend a 150-175gr bullet. You really are overthinking this one. As I like to say about Alaskan adventures: "You don't need to create drama up here--it will be provided for you free of charge!" [/QUOTE]
